People living in Chartiers Township were ordered to “Shelter in Place” when fire broke out inside a metal manufacturing plant on Thursday evening. Washington County emergency management crews say a piece of machinery caught fire around 7:30 p.m. inside Dynamet, a fine metals and wire manufacturer, in the 100 block of Museum Road.
“Upon arrival, they did find a piece of machinery was on fire inside the building, smoke was leaving the property,” said Ryan Frazee, of the Washington County Department of Public Safety.
